  • Abstract
    A set of impedance controllers is used for both state estimation and tracking control on a mobile robot. State estimation is based on the states of a family of impedance controllers and tracking is implemented through a single controller from this set. Reinforcement learning techniques are used to create switching policies that optimize time or energy in a path tracking task.
